Yoga means the connecting link between the soul and the Supersoul, or the Supreme and the minute living creatures. Lord Sri Krishna is that Supreme, the Personality of Godhead. Being, therefore, the ultimate object of yoga, Krishna's name is yogesvara, the master of yoga.

Explanation On Kundalini Chakras

We talked about the twenty -four syllables that are in Gayatri Mantra. We also discussed the origin of this mantra and who invoked it first and what that person used it for? Practically, Vishwamitra used it to become the universe himself, to have that constant connection with universal consciousness. We have right and left side of the brain. The left-brain is responsible for logic and calculations and also for chattering of the mind. The right brain on the other hand is for creativity, art, vision and foresight and so on.

When you chant gayatri mantra, there are two channels in human body. There are three but physically you can only trace two. One is called ida nadi, also know as the lunar channel. The other one is called pingala nadi, also known as the solar channel. Solar channel regulates psychic heat in the body as well as the physical heat in the body. It is when you breathe through your right nostril. When you chant Gayatri mantra, it actually boosts your right brain. It is very good for strengthening the right side of the brain.

Listen to this insightful discourse by Om Swami on the importance of understanding the science of chanting and sound to get the benefits from Gayatri Sadhana.

Mantra Chanting - Science Of Sound

Hare Krishna by Om Swami

The question asked in this discourse was how to stay happy all the time?

On the question of staying happy all the time, in reality, this is impossible. A person with a stable mind cannot stay happy all the time. When you are not happy, do not feel bad about it. Tell yourself that it is okay. This is one of those moments where I am not happy, No Problem. This is not the first time I am feeling unhappy, and this shall pass as well. 

Happiness is either in the hope or in those thoughts in which we visualize getting the thing that we
want to get and feel happy about that. We basically feel happy only when everything goes according to our wishes. But that happiness is also for a very short time. In fact, the most depressed people I have seen are the ones who are well-off from every aspect of their life. Because they have no reason to have any sorrow. That is why they don't know how to stay happy. if there are no sorrows or
adverse situations in life, if there are no challenges in life then life is not worth living. If there are no problems left to solve then life itself becomes a problem. When there is no burden to carry in life,
then life becomes a burden.

"Somewhere, we all pack our own lunch. It’s entirely in our hands to either be graceful about things we find disagreeable and look at the brighter side (and yet be industrious to bring change) or keep on complaining. Our happiness is in our hands and a lot of it depends on how and where we direct our time and energy." https://os.me/five-principles-happiness/

Can you always be happy - [Hindi]

Pillai Center

5 Element Meditation: Na Ma Si Va Ya

In this discourse, Om Swami answers three questions. 

The First Question - If you do good karma, can you prevent any misfortune from occurring in your life? With how much fear should one live in, or should one lead a life with faith in God.  Om Swami Says, even you have done millions of good deeds (Karma), there is no guarantee that
nothing bad will happen to you. What is the meaning of "bad"?  It is something that happened not according to your favor. But one must ask, is it truly bad? This is the difference
between pain and suffering, Sorrow is suffering but the pain is not. Say you have done a
lot of good deeds, but did not look after your health, can your good deeds prevent illness in your body? That's not possible. No one knows when and which Karmic account will be used. No one can predict who will win the lottery. But we cannot live in fear, that will make us weak.

The Second Question -  When the Soul is going towards liberation at a fast speed does it try to clear the Karmic debt of many past lives in one life? 

The Third question -  Is it true that different Yugas (Satyug, Tretayug, Dwaparyug, and Kalyug)
are happening in the different parts of the universe?

Listen to the full discourse to get deeper insights into the topics.

"How well you feel about what you do is the foundation of a meaningful existence. A life of no meaning is a life that’s gone out of control. Drifting is hardly a voyage. And that is why, in my humble opinion, every spiritual being at some point of time in his/her life steps back and questions the meaning of it all. " https://os.me/when-you-feel-in-control/"

Can Good Karma Prevent Misfortune [Hindi]

Om Swami is a Himalayan monk, adept in meditation. At the peak of his meditative practice, he was meditating for 22 hours a day. He has spent 15,000+ hours meditating & has experienced our sublime consciousness in ways that defy any scientific understanding.

Researchers from IIT in India have studied the remarkable effects of his intense practice and published the results in a 2019 research paper https://bit.ly/3axrzdv 

After coming back from Himalayas, Swami wanted to help sincere seekers in search of enlightenment. Gradually he realized that people wanted his help for various ‘how to’ in life (joy, relationship, anger, work, self-discipline, stress, etc). Through his talks, seminars, books, and videos – his purpose remains the same – to help people. 

Whether you are practicing meditation, mindfulness, or simply looking for help with self-discipline – this channel can help. Think of it as a series of self-help videos and don’t forget to
